IMO, is the Star Spangled Banner. Sometimes brings a tear to my eye :)

O Holy Night, the Christmas carol can be really powerful if sung correctly, too.

The star spangled banner is not even remotely beautiful to me. Some of the lyrics are pretty good, but the melody is terrible. Does the song imagine count, since both john lennon and blues traveler have versions? Also it was performed by scott bakula on quantum leap. Surely that qualifies.

My second vote was going to be for a Lennon song as well.

"Beware of Darkness"

On second thought, I think it was a George Harrison song. :eek:

That's okay, George kicked ass too. John > George > Paul > Ringo :)

I think the Irish make some of the most beautiful melodies I've ever heard (and I'm a classically trained pianist)

Danny boy always brings a tear to my eye

The Minstrel boy (Heard on an episode of ST:TNG)

But every time I hear amazing grace my eyes tear up. Either that, or "Mansions of the Lord"

Perfect Day
Lou Reed did the original, it was then re-done for a charity thing IIRC, by loads of different artists.

Rufus Wainwright does a great cover of that song.

I heard Rufus play that song live last summer in Boston. It was ethereal. There's this unknown artist called Ari Hest that also does a great cover of Hallelujah.
